I have been hard at work these past several days weeks months. My collector’s edition Starcraft 2 box is sitting right next to the computer, but I still could not even find time to finish the campaign (not to mention the multiplayer).

I usually manage to shell out half an hour a day or so, to watch some replays (comentated by Husky and HD Starcraft) of top tier players. This is my impression of how my game would look like.

Believe it or don’t, but there is actually a new episode of Bici Bee for you :) I just had this idea in my head for weeks and had to get it out somehow.

Thanks to Simeon for reminding me about Bici!

I found this one on a Turkish t-shirt site geyikadam.com. It is so spot-on, that I decided to translate it into English and share with you all.

If you have ever worked on a commercial design project, you should get a good laugh out of it.

And now I gotta get back to my own project revisions.

So the cat is out of the bag. Today I’m marrying Cigdem in a small ceremony held at the shore of Caribbean Sea.

Life doesn’t get much better than this.

Raise a glass!

The time is coming…

Guest starring: Kotoko the Kamikaze Sponge Ninja Assassin!

Ah, the romance…

Today most of the old (non-slim) Playstation 3 systems started exhibiting the problems with connection to PSN, trophies, date and time. It is a result of a (Y2K ?) bug in PS3 firmware having problems coping with leap years. This episode of Bici Bee commemorates this momentous occasion.

Symptoms include:

• PS3 changing its date to 1/1/2000
• Trying to connect to PSN resulting in An error has occurred. You have been signed out of PlayStation Network (8001050F) message
• Trying to launch any title supporting tropies resulting in the following message being displayed: Failed to install trophies. Please exit your game.
• Trying to update the time via Internet resulting in: The current date and time could not be obtained. (8001050F)
• Being unable to play back some videos purchased in PlayStation Store

Official statement from Sony advises:

“We hope to resolve this problem within the next 24 hours. In the meantime, if you have a model other than the new slim PS3, we advise that you do not use your PS3 system, as doing so may result in errors in some functionality, such as recording obtained trophies, and not being able to restore certain data.

“As mentioned above, please be advised that the new slim PS3 is not affected with this error. We are doing our best to resolve the issue and do apologize for any inconvenience caused.”

Be on a lookout for stray-away bees when shopping.

This is possibly the most inexpensive exercise machine in the world.
